Artist and baker Christine McConnell is a little twisted: just look at what she did to her parents’ quaint 125-year-old two-story home in Highland. It now looks like it’s going to eat you, and if you’ve caught her show on Netflix, you’d know that even if you did get eaten, if dessert followed, it would be AMAZING.

The star of “The Curious Creations of Christine McConnell,” which came out Oct. 12 on Netflix added slanting eyes, pointy teeth, and a faux exterior to the formerly unassuming home off busy Boulder Avenue. “This took me over a month and is probably my most ambitious project ever,” McConnell posted on social media.

About 4,000 shingles were cut for this year’s project. The home is at 27773 Pacific Street in Highland. On Facebook, her mom asked sightseers to be considerate of neighbors.

Even the San Bernardino County Sheriff’s Department, got in on the fright, posting pictures on social media of deputies cautiously approaching the house along with safety tips such as “look out for cars” and “carry a flashlight.”

Halloween is right around the corner and we want everyone to be safe! tips: If possible, go in a group supervised by an adult, watch out for cars, Carry a flashlight, Never go in a strangers home or car, inspect candy. Thank you to Christine McConnell for her curious creations!🎃 pic.twitter.com/rSnkM2kEDf
